Please describe your reactions/ideas to the following quote: "He does not possess wealth, it possesses him."

When blessed with as much wealth as some are, it may begin to get to one's head. Your actions are revolved around how to get more, rather than what good you can do with what you already have. However, there are many different opinions on what wealth is. To some, it may be what one physically possess, and to others it is what one emotionally owns. If your aspect of wealth is money and riches, they can begin to possess you. You will not spend the money, the money will spend you. Your greed will get the beast of you, and your actions will be based on what opportunities there are for you to gain more riches. And if your aspect of wealth is happiness, then your actions will be based on what there is to do in order for you to be happy. Either way, wealth possess the beholder, regardless of what the "wealth" may be.
